Babies under three months old are the most difficult to care for. Mothers should pay attention to observing changes in all aspects of the baby's body when in contact with them. If any abnormalities are found, they should promptly identify the cause and solve the problem accordingly. So what if a two month old baby has a smell in their mouth?
Firstly, it is caused by food accumulation. After giving birth, babies' nutritional needs will greatly increase, and the amount of milk they consume will significantly increase. However, this also makes babies at this stage more prone to food accumulation problems. After a baby accumulates food, their mouth will have a strange odor, especially when they burp, there will be a sour and fermented smell. In addition, when babies accumulate food, they may also experience symptoms such as fever, decreased appetite, and lack of energy.
Secondly, oral ulcers. Babies can also experience oral problems such as ulcers. The main cause of oral ulcers is bacterial infection of the oral mucosa. Microbial metabolism will produce substances with unpleasant odors. Therefore, oral ulcers and other oral infections can also cause a strange odor in the baby's mouth.
Another thing is to ignite. Breastfeeding babies are prone to internal heat, which can lead to symptoms such as dry mouth and tongue, as well as bad breath. Wearing too much or covering the baby with a thick blanket at night can easily cause the baby to get angry. Therefore, it is necessary to adjust the indoor temperature and try to maintain it at around 26 degrees. In addition, giving babies plenty of plain water can prevent overheating.
